Catching a home run at a baseball game is pretty freakin’ awesome. But it’s something else entirely to catch Los Angeles Angels outfielder, Torii Hunter’s home run (in this case, at batting practice) while holding a video camera, capturing the whole thing on tape. But when you do, it’s your duty to put it on the Internet, and this guy follows through.

Tonight against the Florida Marlins, Ken Griffey Jr. has joined a class more elite then the mile high club. Only 5 other players have ever reached the exclusive 600 home run mark and 2 of them (Bonds and Sosa) cheated to get there.

Now that Griffey has reached the historic mark of 600 home runs let’s dip into the COED archives and take a look at some of the game’s young studs to predict who’s next to make a serious run at 600+.

After all, 600 is the new 500 or is it?’

COED Presents: Young Players Likely To Hit 600 HR’s

Every sports fan has an opinion on whether of not Barry Bonds is a cheater.

Watch ESPN’s media blitz for 10 minutes and you will know what I’m talking about. Bonds just broke the most coveted records in all of sports and the media can’t seem to redirect their news fiending boner away from the fact that the guy potentially cheated.

Are American’s really fired up about Bonds cheating or is this just another case of the media force feeding us “controversial” topics to drum up ratings? I decided to hit the streets and ask some every day Joe’s whether or not they think Bonds is a cheater and why.

Here’s what I found… (more…)

SAN DIEGO — At 7:29 p.m. local time Saturday, in the top of the second inning, Barry Bonds hit career home run No. 755 off Padres pitcher Clay Hensley. It was the first home run he had ever hit off Hensley, who became the 445th different major league pitcher to surrender a home run to Bonds.

It came on a 2-1 pitch, a 91-mph fastball. The swing was clean and true, hands back, head in, follow-through a study in grace and power. The crack of the bat was sharp, familiar, prodigious. The ball flew 382 feet on a low, sharp line to the opposite field, over the left-field fence and off the facing of the second deck of seats at San Diego’s Petco Park.

The sellout crowd came to its feet — some cheering, some booing. Bonds’ teammates burst from the dugout to await him at home plate, and he circled the bases quickly, clapping his hands on his way to first, and slapping a celebratory high-five with Giants coach Tim Flannery as he made his way around third base.
